This stupid ass team… just love to look like a dominant team when it doesn’t mean shit. Love the defense draft this year… too bad their rookie contracts will all almost be up by the time we have anywhere close to the rest of the pieces

Raheem isn't getting fired. I just know it. They'll beat the Saints and point to injuries again as to why we didn't get more than 8 wins, when really if we had a decent coach we win 11 minimum this year.

As long as Rich McKay is being Grima Wormtongue we have no shot at winning unless it's in spite of our leadership's incompetence like we did during the Ryan years.

Falcons win Monday was classic Falcons. Lose when it matters then win enough when it doesn't to convince the execs that no change needs to be made.

It was one ugly win. Got gifted a 21 point lead on the back of one of Stafford's worst throws of the year and a defensive breakdown on Bijan's run. Then proceeded to be outscored 24-3 in the second half until the final minute.

Even once they retook the lead they let a Rams receiver get wide open for an easy TD if Stafford doesn't flat out miss him. Then they committed pass interference inside their own 20 but somehow the refs "missed" it.

So basically they played poorly overall but barely managed to benefit enough from the Rams mistakes to win and prop up a staff that never should have been hired.

Yes

I was trying to pretend this season didnt exist but the insanity of the NFCS has me intrigued.
